Ancient Land, Sacred Whale: The Inuit Hunt, its Rituals and Poetry 


  On a tiny peninsula in the North Alaskan wilderness, the Inuit of Tikigaq worshipped the whales they killed, evolving an elaborate system of myths and rituals to accompany the hunt. Written in a variety of styles and voices, this book combines lyrical and dramatic sequences of great power and beauty, while retaining a deep respect for the mysterious Tikigaq people and the animal spirits they claim as their kin.
